Step by step

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 175°C / 350°F.

2. 2

   Rinse chickpeas very well.

3. 3

   Add everything except the chocolate to a blender or food processor.

4. 4

   Blend until completely smooth and creamy.

5. 5

   Fold in chopped chocolate.

6. 6

   Transfer to a small baking pan (about 8×8 inch / 20×20 cm).

7. 7

   Add extra chocolate on top if desired.

8. 8

   Bake for 18– 22 minutes. Do not overbake them. The brownies should still look slightly soft in the center — they become extra fudgy while cooling.

9. 9

   Add raspberries to garnish.
